Blogs

Blogs are a great way to keep up to date on the latest happenings in educational technology, or any other interest you might have! I use an RSS reader (Rich Site Summary) which compiles and organizes multiple blogs into different categories. New blog posts are added as they are written by the bloggers I follow, and as I read them, the RSS reader marks them as read and removes the "new post" notification. This is a great way to keep up with all sorts of good information.

I use a tool named "Feedly", but there are lots of others out there. Its just a matter of preference. By using an RSS reader, you get to select the types of items you want to read about, and avoid all of the clutter that a traditional internet search would provide. The more you read, the more blogs you will run across that will interest you. I highly recommend you start reading smarter, not harder!
